A Espiã

An interesting true spy story set during WWII centered in Norway and Sweden.

Well produced and acted by all involved.

It is good to see a war movie that doesn't relay on British/US perspectives.

Maybe it was because of the subtitles, but I really found this confusing, especially towards the end, as to who was a patriot and who was not, or even what nationality the characters were.

I didn't know what was going on during the last 30 minutes, which is a shame as the look and the characterisations were good.

It was truly a rollercoaster of emotions! This movie was raw and beautiful and I loved every second of it! <3<3<3

Incredibly well-told true story, packaged in under 2 hours.

Story that kept me intrigued and interested throughout.

Our heroin starts off as a privileged, spoiled, and career-driven climbing Norwegian actress not very much interested in the world at war and her country's oppression under the Nazi yoke.

But when personally affected by a despotic brutality of the Nazi administrators in her Country, she steps up to the plate and consciously puts her future acting career (and life) on the line. The point of whether she puts the interest of her Country before her own acting ambitions, or whether she is simply motivated by her family's predicament with Nazis was to me not completely clear in the film, perhaps it was intentional on the part of the director, perhaps to this day nobody knows what her real motivation was. Perhaps Sonja Wigert herself, before she died wasn't able to define her own motivation, perhaps it was a combination of factors. But when the time came she did the noble thing and put others before her own safety and career.

Fantastic acting from all characters.

Just finished watching "The Spy" on World Movies Channel. The review gave it 4 Stars but when I consulted IMDB its rating was only 6.1, about average. Was in two minds whether to watch or not. In the end, my wife and I decided to watch it and yes a few mis-spellings in the subtitles if you are observant, but overall, we thought it a very good and riveting movie. The lead, Ingrid Bolso Berdal was very good and was able to enunciate the feelings of being caught or trapped in the middle very well - to be portrayed as a traitor, watching friends being killed but trying all the while to be a patriot and elicit information from the Germans to pass to Swedish authorities. All the cast did well in their parts and the film deserves a much higher rating than it actually got on average. We were almost in tears at the end that her due story was not made available until much later; how she would have suffered throughout her later life due to public ignorance of her true situation. We gave it a strong 8/10 and would thoroughly recommend it, if you get a chance to see it.
